Joslyn Art Museum will host an Art Talk & Brown Bag Lunch event featuring their latest exhibit — “In Living Color: Andy Warhol and Contemporary Printmaking,” from the collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and his family foundation — at noon on Nov. 4 in the Sorrell Center, Room 2010.
The exhibition is on view at the Joslyn through Jan. 11.
Join Karin Campbell, Joslyn’s Phil Willson Curator of Contemporary Art, for an illustrated overview of the exhibition.
Warhol, a master colorist, depicted the world with the volume turned up! Employing a seemingly endless palette, he challenged how we comprehend the iconic imagery of popular culture, politics, and consumer society. This exhibition examines how Warhol and other artists working since 1945 — including Helen Frankenthaler, Mary Heilmann, John Baldessari, and Ross Bleckner — have used color to shape how audiences understand and respond to images.
The presentation is part of the Passport Partners program, which provides free museum admission for medical center employees, students and their immediate family with a valid identification badge, while also offering lectures, workshops and other events on the medical center campus.
